I’m so choosy about who I want to be at the hospital during surgeries. I don’t even tell my extended family snout my oophrectomy. I guess I deal with my pain by myself and my doctors appointments by myself and. I one will ever get it so I’m super protective about it all. (my parents HATE that I don’t update them)

I get like that with my in laws. My family knows, but my in laws are so clueless when it comes to endo, i dont bother. But i totally understand being protective

I was so shocked by this question as how relevant it is to me .I dont want to speak to anyone about my doctor appointments or what was discussed or decided by myself and my doc.i think it's just a very personal matter. I haven't found anyone I'm comfortable speaking to yet but maybe a friend to confide in wouldn't be to bad ?.
